Paper Acceptance and Preparation of the Final Paper
When the review process has been completed, authors receive a notification of either acceptance or rejection of the paper. If the paper has been accepted, the authors can prepare a final paper that incorporates the reviewers' suggestions.
The format for the final papers is identical to the format for the full paper. The final paper has a required minimum length of five (5) pages and a maximum of six (6) pages.
